Crofts, so was this youth called and designed, one night, at the Groom Porter's being full of wine and waggery, to introduce this threadbare subject, and to say something concerning a goose-pie, which I could not but consider as levelled at me. Nevertheless, I did but calmly and solidly pray him to choose a different subject; failing which, I let him know I should be sudden in my resentment.
Ay, indeed eight, I might say, for I am an early little body; though I say it that should not say it I AM an early little body. Just. An early little body, as you say, Mrs. Bustle; so I shall have my goose-pie for dinner, hey? Land. For dinner, as sure as the clock strikes four but I mustn't stay prating, for it may be spoiling if I'm away; so I must wish your worship a good morning. Just.
Bustle promises me the goose-pie for dinner. Four o'clock, do you hear? And show the old man in now. Land. My old gentleman, as I hope to breathe! Enter the OLD MAN. Just. What stops you, friend? Come forward, if you please. Land. So, sir, is it you, sir?
